A Sad Death.

Durwood E., youngest son of Mr..
and Mrs. R. B. Higgins, aged about
two and a half years, died at their
home, two miles from McMinnville,
at six O'Clock Wednesday evening
Aug. 18th. He was taken sick on
Friday of last week. He was an un-
usually bright and interesting child,
and his death was a severe blow to
the loving parents. The remains
were inferred in the new cemetery at
five o'clock Thursday evening.
Owing to the illness of Mrs. Higgins
the funeral service had to be post
poned to some future time. This
family moved to our midst from the
North something over two years ago,
and have made warm friends of all
who know them, which was mani
tested by the large assembly which
followed the remains oflittle DurwoOd
to the grave. The stricken parents
have the heartfelt sympathy of the
entire community in their sad afiiic-
ton.

The Tennessee Midland Railroad.

Messrs. J.F. Morford, w. G. Wom-
ack, J. C. Biles and r. M. Reams
journeyed to Woodbury. and back on
last Wednesday to consult with Col.
Josiah Patterson, the representative
of the Tennessee Midland Railroad,
with reference to inducing that road
to include McMinnville in its route.
The committee had most pleasant
interview with Col. Patterson, and
he seemed quite willing to favor Nc
Minnville in the construction of the
road if MeMinnville will come up
witha handsome subscription of stock
to the road. Col. Patterson: placed
his figures at rather dizzy altitude,
but the injunction to aim high has
probably taken deep root .in the
minds Of all railroad men. He ad-
vised the calling of the citizens of
McMinnville together and making
the best offer we possibly can to the
Midland people to diverge their line
and run within one mile of McMinn-
vile.
McMinnville cannot afford to let
this road pass by in ten lmiles of the
town, if any reasonable inducement
can secure it, and the Midland Rail-
road people would, commit very
great blunder to go by us without a
reasonable effort to reach us. The
interests of the two are mutual, and
McMinnville will benefit the Mid
land road as much as the: Midland
road will benefit McMinnville. 1t
will be the most important point on
that road between Nashville and. the
East Tennessee Valley, and the:Iroad
will not build up any otheri place
along its line betWeenIthe points in
dicated in the next twenty years
which will give the road as much
business as McMinnville, excepting
possibly coal and iron.shipments out
of Cumberland mountain. ~ @McMinn-
vile already has manufacturing es-
Establishments employing $50 oper-
tives, which with the Midland rail-
road and the development of our nat
ural gas, would be doubled or tre-
bled in a few years.
McMinnville wants the Midland
road, and we are equally as well
satisfied that the Midland road wants
McMinnville on its line, so let every
body pull together, let us do the very
best we can for the road, and we be-
lieve we can get it.
